Toot

Trying to find a way to listen to my music library on my iPhone while the phone is connected to my Mac via cable, using the phone as hotspot and charging it the same time.

Since Apple took away the 3.5mm jack (yes, I am oldschool, using a wired headphone) there is no simple way of listening to the music on the iPhone same time.

I've used AirPlay Receiver on the Mac with success in the past, but that no longer works.

iTunes (now Music) used to be able to play via cable, not anymore.

What now?

I am aware there is this "library sync" thing in Music, but I think it's different from what I want.

iTunes on Mac used to be able to play tracks from any iPhone connected via cable, without permanently copying anything in any direction. That feature seems to be gone (likely long ago, haven't used it for years).

Search engines are also trash, can't find any traces of this old feature, no matter how I phrase the query.

Fun fact, this music library has content I "purchased" on Napster in the late 90's, over an 56k modem.

Yea, I am that old.
